Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a range of toys comprising at least a miniaturized reproduction of a vehicle or a motorized vehicle, as well as the miniaturized reproduction of at least one accessory or device complementary to said vehicle or motorized vehicle.
  • toys comprising a chassis on which the drive members, the drive and control members and at least one body can be adapted.
  • this type of toy is aimed at children of a certain age and is closer to model making than the simple toy, intended for relatively young children.
  • the present invention proposes to produce a very complete range of toys, reproducing from a simple model a series of vehicles or motorized vehicles with which is associated a whole series of accessories which can also be motorized.
  • the range of toys according to the invention is characterized in that the motorized vehicle or machine comprises an electrical energy outlet and in that the accessory or the complementary device to said vehicle comprises an electric motor and means for connecting this motor with said power outlet.
  • this range of toys consists of at least one basic unit consisting of a chassis carrying an electric motor, at least two axes each equipped with two wheels, at least one of the axes being coupled at the output shaft of the electric motor, a source of electrical energy and said vehicle power intake; and at least one body for covering said chassis. Thanks to this basic unit and a series of various bodies, the child can make a whole range of very diverse vehicles.
  • This chassis also includes mechanical members for pair said accessories or additional devices.
  • the chassis is reversible so that it can be used in one direction or the other, depending on the body provided. This is particularly interesting in that it makes it possible to vary the range of vehicles produced considerably and to provide a large number of different bodies.
  • the basic unit is used in the first sense to be dressed in a truck, fire engine, passenger car etc. and the other way around when dressed in a tractor, construction machine, etc.
  • the base unit carries a control member, preferably a pivoting lever, intended to control at least the following functions: forward travel, reverse travel and stopping the vehicle.
  • each base unit has a power outlet connected to the terminals of the motor to allow connection of the electrical energy source of a second base unit to the engine of the first base unit.
  • FIG. 4 shows by way of example another accessory coupled to a vehicle produced from the base unit of FIG. 1.
  • the base unit 10 consists of a chassis 11, for example of molded synthetic material, carrying an electric motor 12, a source of electric energy constituted for example by a series of dry cells or accumulators 13, and four wheels 14 mounted two by two on two axes 15, at least one of which is coupled to the output shaft (not shown) of the engine 12.
  • This chassis also carries a control lever 16, swivel, intended to control the forward, reverse and stop of the vehicle.
  • An electrical power outlet 17 is mounted on one of the sides of the chassis to allow the coupling (as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5) of accessories associated with the vehicle obtained after dressing the base unit.
  • a pivoting hoop 18 allows mechanical coupling of various accessories or complementary devices, in particular a sandblaster as shown in FIG. 5.
  • a second socket 19 can be provided to allow the motor 12 to be supplied by an external source, in particular by the source of electrical energy from another base unit.
  • FIG. 2 represents a base unit 10 on which a truck body 20 is fitted, composed for example of a cabin 21 made of synthetic material placed at the front of the base unit 10 and retained by two lateral pins 22, and a bucket 23 also fixed to the chassis by two lateral pins 24.
  • .La.figure 3 represents this same basic unit 10 used in the other direction to receive a body 30 which dresses this unit in caterpillar tractor.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a vehicle as represented by FIG. 2 to which a concrete mixer 40 has been associated, the motor 41 of the concrete mixer is supplied by the source of the vehicle 42 through the energy socket 43 connected to the socket 17 secured to the basic unit dressed as a truck to form the vehicle 42.
  • FIG. 5 represents another assembly in which a truck 44 tows a sandblaster 45 whose engine 46 is powered by the electric power source of the vehicle 44 through a cable 47 connected to the power outlet 17.
  • the sandblaster is mechanically connected to a hook 48 which can be fixed to the base unit on the side opposite to the arch 18 ( Figure 1).
